Quinoa crisps Cook the quinoa in the salted water.

When cooked, mix and spread on a baking tray in a thin 2-mm layer. Place in the oven at 170°C to dry out.

Celerisotto Cut the celeriac into the shape of grains of rice. The aim is to obtain consistent pieces, as close as possible in size to a grain of cooked rice. Chop the shallots.

Cook in Debic Cuire & Rôtir. Add the celeriac and moisten with white wine.

Cook as you would a traditional risotto, moistening regularly with white wine.

Simmer over a low heat until almost totally reduced. Cream slightly with Debic Crème 40% and reduce again for a few moments. Adjust the seasoning and add a little finely chopped coriander before serving.
